Superb is the word to describe the debut album Un from Dan Black. It was a very big part of 2009 for me. I was instantly hooked on the single ‘U+Me‘ when it was the free download of the week on UK iTunes, who says that campaign is useless? After seeing him perform before Robyn and Kelis Monday at 930 Club I realized I need to share more of my appreciation for his work.
His album is a mix between an unbelievably optimistic outlook on life that, and one that seems to have been tempered with real life experiences that things are not always what you want them to be. Dancy at times, chill at others, and completely unexpected most all of the time.
